you can just set a hotkey that doesn't do anything.

I would recommend getting a keyboard with a Fn key. Usually Fn+F11 disables the keyboard. That or unplug the keyboard when you leave. Also HotkeySet() dosn't work for the mouse.

That's when you used _IsPressed()

Yeah, but _IsPressed doesn't steal keys (or mouseclicks) like HotKeySet, so when you click the mouse you'd still be getting the click plus the result of the _IsPressed.

HI,

you want something strange like

HotKeySet("{ESC}", "a")

while 1
    sleep(100000000)
WEnd

Func a()
;MsgBox(0,"","jo")
EndFunc

????

Has everyone forgotten or just dont know about BlockInput()?

HotKeySet("^!s", "_Start");CTRL+ALT+s starts the block
HotKeySet("^!x", "_End");CTRL+ALT+x ends the block
HotKeySet("{ESC}", "_Exit");ESC exits the program

While 1
    Sleep(10)
WEnd

Func _Start()
    BlockInput(1)
EndFunc

Func _End()
    BlockInput(0)
EndFunc

Func _Exit()
    Exit
EndFunc

@Valuater

If your code uses BlockInput ignore this post hehe.

I hope the above helps with the situation,

I don't like block input because it blocks your mouse too. It comes in handy every once in a while, but other than that, I don't like 100000 hotkeyset's in my scripts.

HotKeySet("^!s", "_Start");CTRL+ALT+s starts the block

HotKeySet("^!x", "_End");CTRL+ALT+x ends the block

HotKeySet("{ESC}", "_Exit");ESC exits the program

While 1

Sleep(10)

WEnd

Func _Start()

BlockInput(1)

EndFunc

Func _End()

BlockInput(0)

EndFunc

Func _Exit()

Exit

EndFunc

How should that (HotKeySet("^!x", "_End");CTRL+ALT+x ends the block) work if keybord is already blocked????

CTRL+ALT+x does not unblock input as you cant input it. The only way to unblock input is to use CTRL+ALT+DEL as it says in the help file.

EDIT - Too slow again.

You both caught me!! lol

I cant believe I did that. haha

@=sinister=

I thought he wanted the mouse blocked as well.

Anyways... use the CTRL+ALT+DEL to end the BlockInput
